Looking great. Ridiculously low maintenance. This past week i topped with some chicken shit (4-3-2) as a slow release N source, and gave some bloom. we're at 18 main colas with at least 3 extra bud sites per branch. If all goes to plan, this should be a massive yield. Applying neem tonight as a preventative measure before it really starts to flower. Hoping the stretching starts to slow, it's very conspicuous - need to start planning for when the surrounding greenery dies out. Getting some purple on the stems (we've had some cooler nights), hoping i get some purple buds too.
4/9 - calyxes are purple, nice. Applied neem last night as there is one branch with a borderline mite infestation
Nice outdoor grow, how are you doing with bugs. I have been pretty lucky so far. If they are getting to tall try tying down the main. Do it a hour after watering. Good luck
@Pjm70, As of now, absolutely no infestations - aphids seem to be steering clear. definitely have some stuff munching, but nothing bad. found a couple of mites today and some gnats but that is to be expected.
Thanks for the advice too, i've been debating tying the tops
Good luck. I’ve been wanting to try growing a Durban Poison but haven’t had a chance yet. Autos are easier for outdoor in most places, but this is a good choice for an outdoor plant. Cheers.
@Northern_Ent, she's an absolute trooper. I chose durban specifically to grow outdoors because it's supposed to be extremely resilient and low maintenance - perfect for my first outdoor grow. Hope she starts flowering soon, and is as mold resistant as advertised.
I'm actually surprised at how few diaries there are for durban
Very on the edge with the outdoor grows this year , I have a plant going through similar issue now - no pistil change and still 3 weeks left , hope it gives you the sun she requires!
@musashi_miyamoto, it is hard !! I never check the crystal I just go by smell and taste . I like to pick small bud earlie to see what it’s like then repeat until desired trait is found . Good luck with the amber
@CroNicGman, yeah at this point I’m checking trichomes. Definitely learned a lot for my next grow season - no more open soil for photos, too hard to manage, especial with a 2m plant
